Mathematics

About the Program

The Bachelor of Science degree program in mathematics prepares students for employment
in business, industry and government while providing the foundation for continued
studies in mathematics. Students train for a variety of careers and are encouraged
to supplement their studies in mathematics with courses from engineering, science
or business.

The mathematics curriculum helps students acquire sufficient experience and understanding
in a broad range of mathematical disciplines by requiring courses from each of
the four major branches of mathematics: analysis, algebra, topology and geometry,
and applied mathematics. WVU Tech also offers a business-track bachelor’s
in mathematics.
